What are Candle Followers for Church Candles?
Candle followers for church candles are decorative elements used in temples to hold and enhance the candles used in religious ceremonies. These pieces of Catholic goldsmithing usually have the shape of a cap or hood.
Candle followers are placed on top of the candles to retain the wick in the center and prevent wax from dripping down the side of the candle.
Besides this purely practical functionality, they are also decorative elements that create a serene and respectful atmosphere. Their presence on altars and prayer spaces enhances the symbolism and importance of light in the Christian faith.
Candle Followers for Church Candles of Different Materials
Candle followers for church candles can be made from various materials. Metal (brass) is the material most sold by church candle followers. The pieces made of metal are durable and have an elegant finish.
Metal candle followers can be made with two finishes: gold-plated bronze imitation or nickel-plated silver imitation.
Candle followers are also made of other materials such as bronze, crystal, or glass.
Sizes of Candle Followers According to the Candle Diameter
The purchase of a candle follower depends on the diameter of the candle on which it will be placed. A candle follower must have the exact size that fits the candle to function optimally.
A candle follower with a diameter wider than the candle will not fit correctly. It will end up at the bottom of the candle or candlestick.
A candle follower with a diameter smaller than the candle cannot be placed in its position. If the difference between the diameters is not very large, a bit of wax could be shaved off the candle to fit the follower.
The sizes indicated in the dropdown correspond to the diameters of the candles. If your parish usually uses 3 cm (1.18 inches) diameter wax candles, you should buy the 3 cm (1.18 inches) candle follower.
